This is funny. As a homeschooling family, we can relate.

Why Does Freedom Matter?
Here's an article from our good friend Ty Bollinger at cancertruth.net.
You can read the article with the links to the stories he refers to at http://www.cancertruth.net/2012-may-newsletter/
Why does freedom matter? Why does it matter if the TSA is allowed to sexually molest our wives and children? Why does it matter if police are allowed to beat to death a mentally-challenged handcuffed homeless man? Why does it matter if a mother is arrested for taking a picture of a tourist attraction? Why does it matter that a Florida wife was sentenced to 20 years in jail for firing warning shots to prevent her abusive husband from beating her?
Why does it matter? What does this have to do with our health? Let me tell you how these stories are all interrelated.
Because if we sit back and allow the government to enslave (and dehumanize) us in these areas, then we will gladly allow them to violate the Constitution and take our health freedom. Just look at a few recent examples … the FDA raid on Rawesome Foods for selling raw milk … the Detroit SWAT team kidnapping (and raping) of Maryanne Godboldo’s daughter for refusing to keep using psychiatric drugs … the “gunpoint” forced chemotherapy of Jacob Stieler (a child) who showed no signs of cancer … and the list goes on and on and on …
You see, a tyrannical government crushes ALL forms of freedom, including HEALTH freedom! I was watching an interview where the reporter asked the people on the street if freedom was important to them. One remark that really blew me away was when a seemingly intelligent 30-something man answered, “Yes, freedom is important … but it has its place.” In other words: “Yes, we should all be herded like sheep, but within the limits of common sense.”
Sadly, this man’s position on freedom is indicative of our country as a whole. We have been so brainwashed into believing that it’s somehow “patriotic” to give up our freedom and liberty in exchange for more “protection” from the terrorists, boogeyman, and the Easter Bunny. Nothing could be further from the truth. In the words of Benjamin Franklin, “He who sacrifices freedom for security deserves neither.”
We MUST stand-up for liberty in ALL areas of life, or we will lose our health freedom. Codex Alimentarius could become the “law of the land” if we are silent. Codex Alimentarius (Latin for “food code”) is the proposed set of international guidelines for nutritional supplements, food handling, production, and trade which is now gradually being ratified in countries around the world. Codex is made up of thousands of standards and guidelines. One of them, the Vitamin and Mineral Guideline (VMG), is designed to permit only ultra-low doses of vitamins and minerals, essentially making supplements illegal. Vitamin C, for example, at any dosage higher than two hundred milligrams per day will be illegal. The dose of coenzyme Q10 which has been shown to resolve breast cancer in some patients (400 mg per day) will be illegal because coenzyme Q10 will be totally illegal at any dose following the European Supplements Directive model. Only 28 nutrients will be allowed, but the maximum upper limits have been set so low that they have little or no clinical impact in keeping us healthy and none at all in returning us to a state of health if we are ill. And those which are available will be exorbitantly priced.
Codex also stipulates which conditions may be treated using herbs. Only minor, self-limited conditions may be treated by herbal means. Treating any other conditions with herbal remedies will constitute a crime. Codex sets permissible upper limits for pesticide residues, toxic chemicals in the environment, hormones in food and other environmental contaminants which are many times higher than levels advocated by chemical and pesticide industry lobbying groups. Current toxic levels are already responsible for most of the cancers, heart disease, autism, chronic degenerative conditions, and organ failures which are killing people at increasing rates around the globe. Making permissible toxic levels higher will accelerate this destructive world-wide trend. And here is the kicker – Codex is based in the Napoleonic Code, not Common Law. That means that under Codex, anything not explicitly permitted is forbidden. Under Common Law, we hold that anything not explicitly forbidden is permitted. The difference is the difference between health freedom and health tyranny.
We are witnessing the end of America as a nation-state right now, and with these changes, none of our domestic laws or constitutional rights are secure. We are facing a frightening future, not to mention the fact that children born after 1990 have no clue about their food, water, vaccinations, or anything else. Our food supply is full of irradiated food, pasteurized milk and juice, viruses sprayed on our meat, chemicals sprayed on fruit and vegetables, and now we’re being forced without our consent to eat genetically modified foods. Codex is nothing more than Big Pharma’s worldwide “control” agenda. It is an enormous assault on humanity and health freedom. Sadly, like many other instances of government abuse and tyranny mentioned at the beginning of this article, much of the “dumbed down” populace thinks that it’s a “good thing” that the government “cares enough to protect us.” You know the old saying, “A nation of sheep results in a government of wolves.”
We must continue to promote freedom, liberty, and the restoration of the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. In the words of Dr. Benjamin Rush (signer of the Declaration of Independence): “Unless we put medical freedom into the Constitution the time will come when medicine will organize itself into an undercover dictatorship. To restrict the art of healing to doctors and deny equal privileges to others will constitute the Bastille of medical science. All such laws are un-American and despotic.”
I leave you with this well-known quote: “When governments fear the people, there is liberty. When the people fear the government, there is tyranny.”
